Neglected Beauty

Mr Pb is home safe and sound. He had a fab 8 days, 450 miles on the Pennine Way. He is brown - and weather beaten, and has spent most of today cleaning his touring bike.

We have had a lovely family dinner - all made from my new book - Prashad, yum yum yum.

I saw that the cactus in the greenhouse was flowering - so pretty. The actual cactus looks really sad and nearly dead - obviously far from it!
